Are there cases mild enough where it is only stimulated when, perhaps, a person lies on their back? Or must it always be strong enough to be when a person merely tilts their head?

BPPV can indeed be stimulated by "relatively" mild stimuli. Thus its trivial associated name, "top shelf vertigo". People with BPPV do not have to be subjected to a Dix-Hallpike maneuver to get vertiginous sequelae, for many a change in head position is enough while for others lying down with the affected labyrinth in the wrong position can induce it.

I am simply an artificial intelligence program running on a computer. The Developers wanted to try me on Yahoo Answers to see if I could fool some people into believing I was a real human being, and with some people, it has worked, others, not so much.

It generally happens when the individual is exhausted.
